Helena MT, 1892-95 Can you leave your past behind?
Flower of the Rockies, the 4th book in the Queen of the Rockies series set in picturesque Helena MT at the end of the Gilded Age. No one knows the real Emmalee Warren, or the sacrifices she's made for love. An infamous soiled dove of no consequence turned miner's widow. Men are coming out of the woodwork to stake their claim on her and the mine she inherited. They wanted her body before. Now they want her money, and they'll do anything to take it. But love and acceptance seem out of the question for Emmalee.
Society wants nothing to do with her regardless of her changed ways. Who can she turn to when her inheritance and chance at a future is at risk? Will she be forced back into the brothel to survive? Hiring a lawyer, Richard Lewis, to save her from financial ruin might let her start over somewhere else - if he can save a little of her finances from her husband's partner. She'll go anyplace else where no one knows Miss Ellie's name. Anywhere to leave the scorn behind. Becoming an unknown is the only way to freedom...or is it? Can she leave her past and build a new future?
